In the opinion of the fans who saw tho third game. In lloaton, Connie's worst l>on«v was made In the tenth in ning of that game when he permitted Jo# Hush to remain tn the bo* after the Athletto* In their half of that tu ning had broken the deadlock by acor tng two runs Connie certainly most have known that the crowd would get after Hueh aa no crowd ever got after a pitcher. And the crowd did get after the Ath letic pitcher. More than thirty-four thousand fans hooted and yelled and howled In chorus at Hush as he took his place In the ho*—and they kept it up throughout the inning The band tu the left field bleachers opened up with most horrible discords ever heard anywhere That Awful Bedlam. The bedlam was of a kind that beg gar* real description. It was tremen dous. horrible, nerve-wrecking, even for tbe spectators themselves What must It have been for poor Bush, the target of It all; the boy who was en trusted with the burden of thwarting nine determined baseball warrtors and 38,000 fanatics. ltuah tried to Ignore the hoots and howls. Hush, steady and sure up to that moment, crumbled and tha Brave* tied the score and eventually won a game that seemed hopelessly lost when they went to bat in the tenth. Had Connie Mack taken out Bush and put In Chief ltender the chance* are 10 to t that tbe Indian would have held the Hrsvea tu check and saved the game for the Athletic* Times without number tn bis big league career Bender ha* lived through situations similar to that | which Hush faced In the last half of ithe tenth, and Render, obi In pitching ; experience, old In standing up under |the most terrific bombardment of hoa- Itlle fans would have faced the enemy's fire and withstood It. Solid "Ivory." Connie probably figured that the ! Hraves couldn't tie up th* score— , figured that Hush would stand up un det the strain. And In figuring so Connie made a hone that cost ht* team a game and made’the count S to 0 against them. Instead of S to t. a* It should have been. Those who saw the four games can not understand why Connie sent his men to the plate with order* to "kill the ball." These older* more than anything else **nt the Mackinrn to their world* series death Instead of waiting out the Boston pitcher* they swung at nearly everything that was offered. Result Instead of getting free walk* to first or s chance to hit it,- good ones, they fanned or got themselves Into holes from which they couldn't emerge With the count 3 to 0 against him Connie sent Shawkey to the bo* in the final game— Shawkey. who never be fore bad pitched In a world scile* battle He staked the Athletics' chalices on a Kid - and the Kid loat. A Toiist-md! Ids Esulfen&is! Why didn't Connie use Bender in that final game? Bender was the logicnl selection. He was ready and he was wild for another chance at the Bruves True, the Braves hammered him out of the hox in the opening game, but the chances of their repeat ing were remote. Another "Billiard Ball." Another prize bone of Connie’s was to leave Behans behind the hat. Sohangs work at bat and In the field was miserable. His throwing was off color from the start The slow footed Braves stole eight bases on him and Schang caught only one man pilfer ing, Schang made only two hits dur ing the four guinea, when a hit meant much for the Athletics' chances, he fanned/ Jack I-&pp la one of the best catchers In the game. And he'a a hitter Lapp, blindfolded, couldn't have done much worse than Schang The Braves beat the Athletics be cause (hey ontduaaed them in every way They won because they played against the greatest world series baseball ever seen. But (hey ought to thank Connie Mack, and his blun ders. for the fact that they won with euch speed But for Connie's bone in the tenth Inning the eeriee would have gone to five games at least. Were It not for his other bones the series might have been longer. But Connie hlundered. Connie boned four time* in a row and the wonder ful Braves took advantage of each of them and dashed on to victory in rec ord lime. THE THEORY OF MR. CON. MAC. EXPLODED Then' » in n until In our town And he w»* wondrous wtw, He went to see the Athletics play, And even he was much surprised. They raced around the diamond with The speed of lightning flash; They fielded fine and slammed the pill With all their old-time dash As this was the only time our man Had seen the Mackmen play. It thrilled him with the vreatest pride As they put the Yanks aw at "No hunch on earth can heat that team That represents Quaker Town," Our hero said. In a sonorous voice. When the home hoys fathered round, "Just bet your all and then some more That the l*hll> team can't lose Wiiger homestead, wife and girls and hoys To gst hets use any ruse" So the home crowd followed hla advice, Itet their all on the baseball lames.

She is the great granddaughter of champion Flying Fox, out of a noted St. Lambert's cow. She has many dams in her pedigree testing more than 20 pounds of butter in a single week, while one testing as high as 26 pounds and 5 ounces. Next in order might be mentioned “Maggie's Eminent Boy,” No. 109910, a grandson of the famous SIO,OOO bull, Eminent 11. There are others in tha herd that are perfect specimens of fine breeding—cows, heifers and calves. Mr. Crawford is also showing his pride three-year-old stallion, grandson of the famous futurity winning sire, Moko, out of a producing daughter of Wilkes Boy. This stallion is black and Is a coit of lots of substance, fin ish and style and will be hard to beat in any company. He was greatly ad mired by the crowd who saw him, each visitor bestowing only the high est praise on him. Among the horses is a yearling, granddaughter of the same sire and out of a producing daughter of “Prodigal,” whose pedi gree traces back into her fifth gene ration to the sire of “Maude S” and “Jay-Eye-See." These two individu als are fully up to their magnificent breeding, and are the cynosure of all eyes upon entering the live stock build ings, Another entry that Mr. Crawford is not at all ashamed of when it comes to good looks and that is a 5-year-old Jack, color, black with white points. He measures nearly sixteen hands high and is receiving many compliments from those who know something about animals in his class. With him are two of his gets that are beauties, arid a 14^4-hand high four-year-old jennett. She also is black with marking of white points. Mr. Crawford has always taken a de light in live stock raising, and he gives this branch of his business his person al attention, seeing to it that nothing but the best bred animals are ever al lowed on his farm, and the result is that his entries are always regarded as the best at fairs or horse and cattle shows. Mr. Crawford's postoffice address is Greensboro, Ga.; shipping point, Thurston, Ga. A TIP.
